I tried to learn something new and have some fun while doing it.

✦ I'm building YouMightNotNeed - A platform that helps you find alternatives to popular software.

My plan is to improve on in and get some decent traffic to the site.
This week-end has been really productive.

I added a whole new section on YouMightNotNeed that list open source alternatives to popular Saas products.

Feel free to submit your own or share some feedback ! ✦

Open Source Alternatives to Popular Saas Tools – YouMightNotNeed
Find the best open source alternatives to popular Saas tools like Notion, Slack, Trello and more.

Last week was the first time ever I got paid on Internet.

And I've got to admit that it feels pretty satisfying! 🤩🥳

Thanks for the trust and I hope it will be the first of a long series.

Just don't give up, your time will come! ✦

To all my introverts friends building 👇
Sales for introverts 101 -

- Make a landing page
- Write compelling copy
- Put a Dollar Amount
- Add a buy button below it

And then do everything you can to bring people to that landing page 🙈

And hey.. do SEO.. Always do SEO

😮‍💨 I didn’t work yesterday.

No progress made on my product.

Am I sad? No.

Does it really matter? No.

Sometimes it's time to take a break, and that’s okay.

One day won’t hurt your progress.

Just set the analytics of youmightnotneed.co public.

Is it a good idea? 🤔

I want to add information to the YouMightNotNeed cards.

I feel like they are not too informative, so I though I should add more details to them.

What do you think?

It's good to remind yourself why you started your journey in the first place

I started because:
- I want to work on projects that bring real value to people
- I don't want to work for anyone else than me

(and of course earn enough money to take care of my family)

Why did you start your journey? 👇

Got my first meaningful click for YouMightNotNeed from Google 🥳

Overall, already close to 150 impressions which is nice for a 3 day old directory right?
